How can Christians live distinctive lives in a secular culture? Peter addresses this question specifically as it relates to submitting to earthly authority. Our freedom is conditioned by our responsibility to show respect to everyone, love our fellow believers, and fear God, who calls us to be good citizens. Alistair Begg reminds Christians that there will always be those who seek to destroy our faith, but we are to respond by doing good out of obedience to God.

First Peter is a handbook for Christian Living. All of the foundations necessary for building lives of spiritual maturity are contained in these chapters. Peter’s readers were geographically scattered and in the face of all kinds of challenges, they needed to be theologically grounded. Jesus had given Peter the task of feeding and strengthening the sheep. This compelling, practical, vital letter is surely part of the response to that directive. Peter is clear about his purpose: to stimulate their faith, to assure them of the reliability of God’s word, and to encourage them to stand fast in God’s grace.
Peter’s assurance to those who belong to Christ is still a great encouragement today. In volume one of this series, Alistair Begg reminds Christians of our heavenly citizenship and calls listeners to continue growing in faith and hope in Christ through trials.
